Chapter 343: Cultivate Japanese Traitors and Kneel Down in Worship!

Zhu Biao smiled.

"Lan Yu and elder brother Mu Ying are both experienced warriors. Perhaps, they are not as good as the fourth brother, but as the old saying goes, three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang..."

He is very confident in improving the quality of the prince's guards.

From the surprise of Lan Yu and Mu Ying when they heard the news in the imperial study today, it can be seen.

This distance must be a huge watershed in the quality of an army.

The fourth brother has only been in contact with the coastal defense soldiers for a short time, but he can rely on the personal personality charm established in the war.

And the means of controlling people's hearts.

In a short period of time, let the gentry obey him.

After returning to the East Palace from the imperial study.

For the purpose of learning and exploration, he asked Lan Yu and Mu Ying to review the fourth brother's defense of Min County in a comprehensive manner based on the content of the letter, and also find out how the fourth brother did it.

First of all, the triumphant return from the grassland cannot be ignored.

Soldiers are most convinced by capable generals, and in this regard, the fourth brother is beyond doubt.

Secondly, rewards and punishments are clear.

On the first day when the coastal defense soldiers were transferred back to defend Min County, Lao Si chopped off the head of a captain because of military discipline issues. All the coastal defense soldiers understood how important the word "rules" were under Lao Si's command.

During the defense of the city, some other things happened.

For example, Lao Si pushed the young rogues to the front line. This move was too cruel for those young rogues. In Lao Si's eyes, these people were not considered human beings at all.

They were just used for consumption.

But in the eyes of the coastal defense soldiers, Lao Si's move was to care about the lives of his brothers.

During the war, Lao Si led the way again. When the troops of the West Gate continued to support the North and South Gates, Chen Shou, the son of the pirate, led more than 20 armored soldiers to the top of the city.

Lao Si killed more than 20 armored soldiers and fled with his own strength.

Even Chen Shou almost died on the top of the city.

His bravery impressed the soldiers.

...

In this way, Min County seemed to be crumbling, but under the command of Lao Si, the soldiers finally miraculously found that they had defended it!

The respect has reached a very high level.

Lan Yu even threatened that at this time, Lao Si agreed to go out of the city to fight with the Japanese pirates.

The coastal defense soldiers were not even afraid.

Because after the experience of defending the city, the coastal defense soldiers had blindly trusted Lao Si.

So, when Lao Si stood on the front line with the soldiers, the musketeers standing in the first row were panicked, but Lao Si stood there and gave courage, which basically helped the soldiers to restrain their fear.

In the final summary, Lan Yu sighed: After this battle, the coastal defense soldiers of Min County are no longer blindly convinced of the King of Yan, but fanatical!

This very personal way of leading soldiers, in the words of Brother Mu Ying, others can't learn it.

Although they can't do Lao Si's way of leading soldiers with very personal characteristics and personality charm.

But diligence can make up for clumsiness.

The prince's guard rate can't reach the elite level of shooting within fifty steps in one year.

It can be used for two years.

Slowly, the soldiers can always develop habits by following orders.

This is one of the essential purposes of the fourth brother's military manual.

Many military tactics that need to be "understood" are made into regulations, so that they can be directly copied and repeatedly trained.

Phew!

Lady Wang was relieved immediately, 'When Zhu Silang leads his troops back to Nanjing, the prince's guards will definitely not be bad! '

This brother-in-law puts too much pressure on people.

I always feel that if he continues to develop like this, he will replace the prince one day.

It's better to go to sea and leave the Ming Dynasty quickly.

Thinking of this, she smiled and said, "Prince, when the King of Yan goes to sea in the future and conquers the world, he will definitely need port docks for supplies, especially to deal with Japanese pirates. If necessary, my motherland can provide convenience. Jeju Island is a good place. I remember that the Yuan Dynasty navy was stationed here before..."

As long as Zhu Silang is willing to leave the Ming Dynasty.

Don't threaten the status of the prince.

She doesn't care about ceding a little land to her motherland.

Anyway, Jeju didn't belong to Goryeo before.

It was the territory of Tamra.

It was only later that it was annexed by Goryeo.

People like Zhu Silang cannot be provoked. The best way is to prepare a generous gift and let him leave.

Zhu Biao did not know what Concubine Wang was thinking. He was surprised and stretched out his hand to pinch Concubine Wang's cheek, "I thank you on behalf of Old Fourth..."

If Concubine Wang was not completely devoted to the Ming Dynasty, how could she make such a proposal.

...

At the same time.

Hu Weiyong secretly took Li Shanchang's carriage and appeared outside Lu's mansion.

The carriage stopped.

Li Shanchang frowned and looked at Hu Weiyong, "Why do you suddenly pay attention to Lu Ben? Tell me, what do you want to do?"

In the past, Hu Weiyong was arrogant and looked down on Lu Ben, who came to power as the crown prince and regarded himself as the crown prince's father-in-law everywhere.

This time, hearing that Lu Ben returned to the court to celebrate the first birthday of the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen, he actually proposed to visit him?

"Master, you will understand everything after meeting Lü Ben."

Zhu Silang made him end up in such a humiliating situation.

Do you think that if you don't fight for the throne and leave the Ming Dynasty, you can be safe?

If the old Zhu family is not in chaos, he will make the old Zhu family in chaos!

Li Shanchang frowned at the creepy sneer on Hu Weiyong's lips and eyebrows.

...

No one knows what Hu Weiyong talked about with Li Shanchang in Lü's mansion that night.

The Jinyiwei only knew that Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang were guests in Lü's mansion.

Zhu Yuanzhang received the news, but didn't take it seriously.

Tonight, there are too many such news.

After Zhu Di's victory in Fujian was reported, the whole Jinling dignitaries were walking around and talking about it.

Even Geng Xuan immediately slipped out of the house after hearing the news and ran to Jiangning to deliver news to Chunxiao to leave a good impression.

So when the Geng family found out, they lectured Geng Xuan, causing a lot of uproar.

…

How about Jinling.

Zhu Di didn't know.

After Liang Daoming and Ye Wenju handed over a list of local powerful people in Fujian, they sent them off as gifts.

Yu Jing turned back and brought back a large number of prisoners to him.

…

Anyway, after a busy few days.

It finally stopped.

This day.

County House Study Room.

Zhu Di sat in the main seat, while Xu Huizu, Yu Jing, Jiang Jinzhong, Shen Zhi and others sat on both sides.

Zhu Di picked up a report and said, "Huizu, you are the local magistrate of Min County. This report of meritorious service will be submitted to the court in your name. I have written it for you, including petitions for merit for the officers and soldiers. See what you need to add and add it yourself..."

Xu Huizu stood up with a smile and took the folder, "It would be great if my brother-in-law stayed in Min County. I would have a lot less worry..."

He didn't mean any kind words.

to be honest.

He governs Min County, which is one of the richest counties in Fujian.

One hundred thousand people.

The brother-in-law is leaving soon, and he will take charge of Min County as the magistrate of Min County.

I suddenly felt very nervous.

Zhu Di smiled and glared, "The list of local magnates in Fujian County confessed by the pirate leaders has been given to you. It is up to you to decide how to deal with it. With this list and this great victory, you are a very stable county magistrate. As long as If you don’t mess around, there will be no resistance to the implementation of rural village communes.”

After saying that, he ignored Xu Huizu.

Turning to Yu Jing.

Yu Jing immediately straightened his chest and sat upright.

This time, he was truly impressed.

We are also more confident in building a large navy in the future.

Unexpectedly, when he came back and mentioned the idea of ​​abandoning the Navy and Navy and changing its name to the Navy, His Highness directly agreed.

I met a soulmate!

Zhu Di knew that this guy was trying his best to sell well in front of him these days.

A Yu Jing.

One sinks to.

After one came back, he secretly ran to him and suggested building a big navy.

He secretly wanted to engage in large-scale trade. Last night, he gave him a proposal and he wanted to start it right away.

Zhu Di smiled and stared, "I agree that you want to change the name to the Navy, and the Big Navy will also do it, but you have to remember that the road is taken step by step, don't aim too high..."

Everyone is young.

What he fears most is that this guy is unrealistic and too ambitious.

If the foundation is not solid, any big navy will be just a show.

"First, we will carefully screen the pirates captured in this battle and those you captured from Jilong Island, and select the qualified ones. Then we will recruit a hundred people from Haiphong and some from Min County. Shen Zhi will also help you recruit from the Shen family. Some crew members from the Shen family who were engaged in sea trade first mobilized more than two hundred warships to form a combat force..."

…

"In the meantime, go to Jilong Island to have a look. If Chen Zuyi abandons Jilong Island, you will station in Jilong Island, gradually explore the settlements and tribes on Dongfan Island, and use friendly means as much as possible to persuade the other party to associate with us."

"Remember, it's about communication, not domination!"

It’s not yet the point of domination.

Let’s make friends first.

Form economic exchanges.

As he continues to expand his influence in Dongfan and the various settlements on the island become more and more dependent on him, dominance will slowly take shape.

As for conquering and making them surrender.

The entire island has a population of between 40,000 and 50,000.

In his eyes, this is already his manpower to develop Dongfan.

What a pity to kill.

After the sea ban is imposed, we still have to find ways to secretly migrate from the coast to the island.

Not that I was hiding it from the old man.

I just don't want to make things too big.

The old man would definitely turn a blind eye.

Just like Jian'an.

In fact, the conditions in many rural areas are very poor.

There are also a small number of people who have been reduced to complete sharecroppers after their poor management of life after the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

These people can send their families to Dongfan.

"Whenever you take back Jilong Island, Jin Zhonghui will go to Jilong Island. He will be in charge of the people, and you will be in charge of the army."

At the beginning of starting a business, he would break down some rules clearly.

If you feel that you can't work with each other, let's get together and part ways.

Separation of military and political affairs.

In the future, the same goes for building a navy.

Under his command, Yu Jing can be the leader of the navy.

But it must not be completely controlled by the Chaohu Clan like the Ming Dynasty Navy.

After the focus shifts to Jilong Island, he will build a naval academy on Jilong Island.

All officers and men must be reborn. From now on, all naval officers, from soldiers to generals, must come from the Naval Academy.

Based on the sea, the navy is his foundation.

It cannot be emphasized enough.

"Yes!" Yu Jing stood up and solemnly accepted the order.

He doesn't care about this.

As long as His Highness allows him to build a large navy and let him lead the navy to conquer the world.

…

The next day.

The people and gentry of Min County heard that Zhu Di was leaving.

Show up early and wait on both sides of the street.

From the gate of the government office to the gate of the east city, people were standing there.

"I want to apologize to King Yan today."

"No, if King Yan went out to fight with the Japanese pirates in the city and didn't stop us, we might have been robbed by another group of Japanese pirates."

"I heard that King Yan and the Young Master of the Xu family came back to Fujian to set up some kind of rural village society. I was a little resistant before. Although now, I don't understand what a rural village community is, but I support it."

…

Amidst the noisy discussion.

Zhu Di walked out of the government office.

Those standing near the government office were all wealthy gentry and wealthy people from Min County. When they saw Zhu Di coming out, they all knelt down and saluted, "Your Majesty, you may live a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand years!"

When this prince first came to Min County, and during the process of defending the city, everyone did complain a lot.

But as the entire battle ended, everyone couldn't help but secretly wipe their hands in a cold sweat as they recalled the entire process.

If it hadn't been for this man, everyone would have fallen prey to the Japanese pirates.

In fact, when King Yan and Mr. Xu Xiaogong took office as new officials, they noticed that the Japanese pirates were invading Fujian County.

You can make excuses for staying in Min County.

At that time, it will depend on the person's identity.

The board didn't fall on him either.

But this Highness is here.

He also led the soldiers and civilians of Min County to win a great victory!

No matter how the other person treats you.

This responsibility is worthy of admiration.

All the way out of the city, the sound of thousands of years did not stop.

After finally getting out of the city and rendezvousing with Tan Yuan, Zhu Di reined in his horse and turned to Xu Huizu and his wife, "Okay, just send them here."

"Don't be too busy promoting rural communities before the New Year. Get familiar with Fujian County first. During the New Year, pack up early and go to Jian'an, or let's go to sea together and go to Jilong Island to celebrate the New Year."

Xu Huizu smiled and nodded, "Brother-in-law, how about we just settle on Jilong Island?"

He can't wait now.

Yu Jing hurriedly promised: "Your Highness, even if there are still pirates occupying Jilong Island, I promise that Jilong Island will be cleared out before the end of the year. In addition, we will seize the time to restore some buildings."

Zhu Di looked at everyone.

Seeing that everyone wanted to visit Jilong Island, he immediately agreed: "Okay, this year we will go to Jilong Island to celebrate the New Year."

…

Until Zhu Di and his party disappeared from sight.

Only then did the couple look back.

Li Yu turned his head and looked back, and many people followed him out of the city. He smiled and sighed: "If you win this battle, my brother-in-law will lay a good foundation for you."

Min County is already wealthy.

The husband followed his brother-in-law and completely wiped out the Japanese pirates and won a great victory. From top to bottom in Fujian County, the support and favor for her husband were unprecedentedly high.

Even Jian'an, which is run by my brother-in-law himself, does not have such high public opinion.

She even doubted it.

The brother-in-law insisted on fighting this battle at that time, with the purpose of building a good public opinion foundation for her husband.

"We can't let sister and brother-in-law down."

Xu Huizu nodded with a smile and looked towards the direction Zhu Di left again.

…

"His Royal Highness King Yan..."

As the team was marching, a voice suddenly came from behind.

Zhu Di and others turned around and saw five Japanese pirate scholars approaching on horseback.

Zhu Di waved his hand, and the nearby soldiers let the five people get closer.

After the five Japanese pirate scholars approached, they sat on horseback and saluted. Zhu Di waved his hand and said, "Let's talk while walking."

The five Japanese pirate scholars were accidentally discovered during the interrogation of the prisoners.

The other party was wearing a Confucian shirt, and it was impossible not to attract his attention.

He also had deep intentions in leaving these five Japanese pirates behind.

He has some special ideas about Japan. Of course, it is still unclear whether they can be realized.

who cares.

Anyway, just treat it as a casual move.

Even if it fails, the five Japanese pirates who speak Chinese fluently and are full of knowledge can be used to help promote local village societies.

Any thoughts?

Just kill him.

How many Japanese pirates would he show mercy to?

Xiaobayakawa Zhongye didn't know what Zhu Di was thinking, and said respectfully: "Your Highness, King Yan, before I came to Fujian, I heard that King Yan came to Fujian to implement a policy called rural village communities..."

After following Kanda Takanobu to Jilong Island, they heard about this.

However, Chen Zuyi only knew a little about rural communities.

But it has aroused their curiosity.

Any policy of the Central Plains dynasty is worth studying by their Japanese country.

What's more, it was the policy proposed by the most outstanding prince.

"We don't know everything. I wonder if Your Highness can help us clear up my doubts?"

Zhu Di glanced at it, and the smile on his lips disappeared, "This is not a secret, there is nothing that cannot be said. When we get to Jian'an, as prisoners, you have to pick up a hoe and help me build a local village community. You can't do it." , If you are of no use to me, I will kill you directly..."

Kobayakawa and others' faces turned slightly pale.

He forced a smile.

Zhu Di then explained the contents of the rural village community to the five Japanese pirates.

After hearing this, the five Japanese pirates were all stunned.

Zhu Di glanced at it and ignored it. He and Jiang Jinzhong were minding their own business and rode ahead.

After a long time.

Ohno Ichiro was the first to come to his senses and said with emotion: "He deserves to be the best prince of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty deserves to be the great kingdom of heaven..."

Their Japanese country, for hundreds of thousands of years, has basically not achieved a high degree of unity similar to that of the Central Plains.

The Ming Dynasty's philosophy of governing the country has undergone new changes.

Once rural village communities were established throughout the Ming Dynasty.

The imperial power of the Ming Dynasty is fundamentally different from the imperial power of the past!

Kobayakawa Nakaye solemnly said: "Although we are prisoners now, we are also students. After we go to Jian'an, we must master the local village communities and then bring them back to the country to transform our country!"

Ohno Ichiro and the four of them looked at each other.

Learning is of course no problem.

Is it possible to transform their country?

Is there one country that can really call the shots on the entire island?

And, how to transform it?

The land is full of daimyo and powerful people like them.

Are you leading the people to rebel?

…

"Your Highness, those who are not of my race must have different hearts." Jiang Jinzhong said, turning his head to look at the five people of Kobayakawa who gathered behind him.

Zhu Di smiled, "No problem!"

He wanted to try to train a few Japanese traitors.

He would not be generous.

...

Thirty miles outside the south gate of Fuzhou City.

Ye Mao stood in a pavilion and looked at the official road leading to Min County.

Look around.

Except for a few confidants, there was no one else.

It was completely different from a few days ago when the Prince of Yan passed through Fuzhou, and officials of all sizes, gentry and powerful people stood behind him.

At this moment, his colleagues in Fujian hid far away.

Fearing that they would be implicated by him.

The gentry and powerful people, who were busy with their own affairs and in a panic all day long, were said to have gone to Jian'an, waiting for the Prince of Yan to return to Jian'an and apologize.

In short, with the great victory in Min County.

He became deserted.

...

Ta-ta-ta...

The sound of rapid horse hooves came.

When Ye Mao came back to his senses.

The confidant who was sent out had already dismounted and trotted over, "Sir, the prince is already ten miles ahead."

"Quick! Get ready!"

Ye Mao turned his head and gave an order.

Then he walked to the center of the official road, gritted his teeth, knelt on the road, and waited quietly...

The construction of rural villages and communities in Fujian will not be described in detail. It will take about three years, and will be described in two or three chapters to focus on the key points.

Then it will jump directly to the plot of returning to Nanjing in the 15th year of Hongwu and conquering the Yuan Dynasty in the north.

Finally, I shamelessly ask for monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, follow-up subscriptions, and full subscriptions.
